If you won't listen to me, listen to the NRA. The NRA came out to strongly defend the government's purchase of ammo! NRA Official Press Release
They warn that it is not safe for members to work themselves up over this purchase. They state, "As most gun owners will agree, skepticism of government is healthy. But today, there are more than enough actual threats to the Second Amendment to keep gun owners busy." |
When I'm at the range I shoot the cheap stuff too. I keep hollow points for home defense. Again, there is only one purpose for hollow points.
Likewise, if you won't listen to me, listen to the GAO (Government Accountability Office) who is investigating why the feds need to purchase so much ammo...

At least somebody in Washington is questioning it.
I'm not worked up about it. But I am being reaslitic why government agencies like the Department of Education, NOAA and the US Post Office need to purchase
any ammo, let alone hollow points.
